I find Ruby to be a fun language and I wish it had more uptake. Sadly, I never see anyone talking about it except alongside rails. And I never hear about rails anymore.

That being said I'm more on the backend side of things so it's not surprising that I wouldn't know the fronted stuff as much. So it could well be a thriving language. I hope so. It's very fun to use.

Python is far more ubiquitous though and it's also very fun.
